Hallmarks on ? German Sifter Spoon

Hi Guys I wonder if anyone can help. I took a chance and bought this spoon today. I had no idea what the marks were. A little investigation gives me the impression that it is German and the 13 1/4 mark is for Loth, which I guess is Silver, about 830 ish. I'm not sure of the other marks. One is reall...

Hallmark on an old flintlock

Hi guys, I am wondering if you could help date this hallmark on an old flintlock. Sorry it's not the clearest. I am thinking it may be 1752? I also wondered if anyone had any idea who the maker may be. Again apologies for the fuzzy screen shot. Appreciated as always. Gary https://i.postimg.cc/FRrJF3...

Pair of ? French Cuff links

Hi Guys, I picked these up today. I'm not really sure what they are - I'm guessing cuff links. Two eagle heads. I'm thinking possibly 18ct Gold -French. What does everyone think?

unidentified marks on a Tastevin

Hi guys
I can't identify these marks on a Tastevin. I don't know the country.
One mark looks like '100', I'm not sure of the second mark.
Help always appreciated.

Re: Sifting Spoon

Hi Guys, found two very small markings when cleaning, just under the end where the wooden handles fits to the silver-work. Looks like a crown and a 13, - possibly - sorry they are small

MOTE SPOON

Hi Guys I came across this today and I had no idea what it was until I investigated. There is no hallmark or date letter, but a clear makers mark - which appears to me to be TM. I wondered if anyone recognised the maker, to give me an idea of when, what I think is a mote spoon, was made. Appreciated...

Chester Hallmark gold; unsure of date

Hi Guys. This is a little broach. 9ct Gold with green stones, which i think may be little emeralds + a small diamond in the middle. The broach has Chester hallmarks but I can't work out the date letter. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated as always. Gary https://i.postimg.cc/4y6rggw6/SAM-9711.j...

Chester dressing set; unsure of date letter.

Hi Guys.
Sometimes I find Chester date marks difficult to decipher. This little set is a glove stretcher, button hook and shoe horn.
Wondering if anyone can identify.
